Description
From its new headquarters, the Human Protection League (colloquially known as "The Lovecraft Squad") must regroup against the rising tide of supernatural threats from such clandestine cults as The Olde Fellowes and The Esoteric Order of Dagon, who worship a group of ancient deities known as the Great Old Ones. As their unholy acolytes prepare to resurrect these multi-dimensional gods from their imprisonment beneath the earth and beyond the stars, the universe hovers on the brink of an Eldritch War such as it has never known before. The only thing that may stand between victory or the enslavement and eventual destruction of the human race itself is a man out of his own time-a writer, a visionary, a dreamer on the night-side . . .
With contributions by: Peter Atkins, Stephen Baxter, Mike Chinn, Adrian Cole, Brian Hodge, Lisa Morton, Thana Niveau, Reggie Oliver, John Llewellyn Probert, Angela Slatter, Michael Marshall Smith, Steve Rasnic Tem, and Jo Fletcher.
